I find the speedtest on this board very unreliable and inconsistant. I just got

1st 512K took 1032 ms = 496.1 KB/sec, approx 3770 Kbps, 3.7 Mbps
2nd 512K took 734 ms = 697.5 KB/sec, approx 5301 Kbps, 5.2 Mbps
3rd 512K took 766 ms = 668.4 KB/sec, approx 5080 Kbps, 5 Mbps
4th 512K took 828 ms = 618.4 KB/sec, approx 4700 Kbps, 4.6 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 4713 Kbps, 4.63 Mbps

But I just downloaded a service pack from Microsoft at around the maximum speed of 10mbit.

Whenever testing your speed, use more than one reference before worrying.
